Bellator
MMA announced the new bouts on Tuesday. The Spike TV-televised
card will take place Jan. 16 at Pechanga Resort and Casino and is
headlined by a featherweight title fight featuring Patricio
Freire versus Daniel
Straus.

Zwicker and Alexander fought to a majority draw at Bellator
129 in October. “The Assassin” seemed to be gliding to a
judges’ decision before he connected on
two headbutts, forcing referee Rob Hinds to deduct a point.
Both men will be making their fourth appearance under the Bellator
banner.

Gonzalez is coming off a surprising technical knockout finish of
Karo
Parisyan at Bellator
127. Following the bout, “The Menifee Maniac” was one of four
fighters from the card who
tested positive for a banned substance. In Gonzalez’s case, he
was
suspended 30 days and fined $315 for having marijuana in his
system.

Zaromskis ended a two-fight losing streak at Bellator
119, defeating Vaughn
Anderson via unanimous decision. Over the course of his
29-fight career, “The Whitemare” has won 13 of his 20 fights via
TKO or KO.
